"Training, by the Sea, for Life"
Each year, 2000 young people (ages 13-25) learn to sail a tall ship with SALTS! The Society offers life changing programs aboard the schooners Pacific Swift and Pacific Grace.
School or youth groups participate in five-day voyages to the Gulf Islands each spring and fall. Individual young people join in ten-day summer voyages along the east or west coast of Vancouver Island. Every few years, an offshore voyage is launched to destinations such as the South Pacific, Far East, Australia, UK, or Spain. Bursaries are available for those who cannot afford the full cost of summer and offshore programs. People of all ages can participate in Day Sails by becoming Society members. SALTS provides training, by the sea, for life.
